This month, we're introduced to BOB HAZLETT - former Big 10 trampoline champion, 1956 University of Iowa assistant gymnastics coach and in 1957, just beginning his (long and successful) career as a gymnastics coach in New Mexico.
Plus, we read about Ted Blakes "wild cross country ride!"
More great photos!
